  1. Pancakes, pasta with meat sauce, soups, chili, etc. My older kids make what I normally make. They started out with helping me and then I would supervise them doing the whole recipe. Now I just tell them what I want them to make & they do it all.

  2. I do ask my kids what they learned. I only keep their papers until I tidy up the house. If they want to keep something it needs to go in their room. I would probably not throw things away at church so the lady doesn't know.

  3. Our school has different age groups and different level classes. There are the littles aged 3-6, next are 7-12, and last is the teen/adult. Class levels are trial course/beginners, black belt club, and masters. The youngest kids have a 30 min class while the rest are all 45 min. We do a homeschool class which has mixed ages & levels but it's really small so they still get personalized attention. Our school does belt testing every 8 weeks. At blue belt level they have to have their belt for 2 cycles (16 weeks) before they can test up. They have certain things that they work on each cycle and have to pass those plus the belt test to rank up.

  4. When my now 14 yo was 4-5 she would throw awful tantrums. I would tell her that she could scream all she wanted only in her room and to punch her pillow if she was mad. I would put her in there and tell her when she was calm that she could come out. You can't reason with them when they are in the middle of a fit.

  5. Each person and each pregnancy are different. Yes it's painful. It's a transitory pain though in that it comes & goes and isn't constant. I only had an epidural with my first and that's because my cervix was swelling. I had no pain meds with the others. My last 2 I had pitocin to augment because my labor stalled. I did a tub with my 1st and 2nd. I took the Lamaze class with my first and just used the breathing. My husband was very helpful to help keep me focused at the end.
